Travis Cottrell's song celebrates the power and wonder of Jesus' blood, emphasizing salvation, forgiveness, and resurrection. The lyrics reflect on the profound simplicity of the gospel, expressing gratitude for the cleansing and redemptive work of Christ.

The overall tone is worshipful and declarative, inviting the redeemed to sing praises to the Son.
The precious fountain from Calv'ry's mountain, flowing down to you and I
It washes us clean, oh what a myst'ry that red blood makes me white
Isn't it wild, doesn't it make you wonder
How something so profound could be so simple
The blood, the blood, the blood, oh the wonderful blood
Your love, Your love, Your love, oh the marvelous love
Let the redeemed sing a song, praises belong to the Son
The blood, the blood, the blood, oh the wonderful blood
My precious Jesus, oh I'm so thankful for the day You saved my life
Ad I remember my heart grows tender, tears begin to fill my eyes
Isn't it wild, doesn't it make you wonder
How something so profound could be so simple
Isn't it wild, doesn't it make you wonder
How something so profound could be so simple
The blood, the blood, the blood, oh the wonderful blood
Your love, Your love, Your love, oh the marvelous love
Let the redeemed sing a song, praises belong to the Son
The blood, the blood, the blood, oh the wonderful blood
The work You did is finished, all of our sins forgiven
And now we get to live in the wonder of the working blood
The cross was Your decision, but death was not the ending
You rose and now we're risen, oh the wonder of the working blood
The work You did is finished, all of our sins forgiven
And now we get to live in the wonder of the working blood
The cross was Your decision, but death was not the ending
You rose and now we're risen, oh the wonder of the working blood
Oh the wonder of the working blood
Oh the wonder of the working blood
Oh the wonder of the working blood
The blood, the blood, the blood, oh the wonderful blood
Your love, Your love, Your love, oh the marvelous love
The blood, the blood, the blood, oh the wonderful blood
Your love, Your love, Your love, oh the marvelous love
Let the redeemed sing a song, praises belong to the Son
The blood, the blood, the blood, oh the wonderful blood
The work You did is finished, all of our sins forgiven
And now we get to live in the wonder of the working blood
The cross was Your decision, but death was not the ending
You rose and now we're risen, oh the wonder of the working blood
Oh the wonder of the working blood
The wonder of the working blood
The wonder of the working blood
The wonder of the working blood
The wonder of the working blood
The wonder of the working blood
Oh precious is the flow, that makes me white as snow
No other fount I know, nothing but the blood of Jesus
Nothing but the blood of my Jesus
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
